Has your HVAC stopped blowing hot air on a cold day or is it blowing lava hot air on a summer day? It could be your blend door stuck. Try this procedure before taking your truck to a shop, it just might fix your problems.
FYI, I have had a couple trucks where they had to do it more than once so try it a couple times.

Yep worked like a charm. Thanks a lot!
FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE SEEING THIS AND CAN'T GET IT TO WORK:
Step 1. Set all dials to where he showed you INCLUDING the ones in the bunk.
Step 2. Turn truck off and leave key facing up and down (not tilted either way).
Step 3. Cut the trucks connection to the battery with the switch on the ground at the back left corner of your chair. (Give it about 15 seconds before reconnecting)
Step 4. Turn key one click clockwise and then hold both buttons like he showed you. (Keep holding for a little bit even after they start blinking).
Step 5. Turn your truck on and cross your fingers. :)
Thanks Ben for the added insight.
@@DDTruckDriver No prob, Bob. Hah i tried it like 10 times and finally got it to work. Definitely a life saver.
Does it work right away? Mines blowing even hotter air now
@@xxxbigboidraco it might take a couple tries
Didn't work for me I'm dying here in Cali
If the sleeper thermostat stops working open the closet, unplug the thermometer plug it back in and it will work again. This is not for the bunk heater. This is for the air conditioner controls in the sleeper.
Amen. Thank you for this. I run a team truck and the a/c was not blowing cold at all. Followed your instructions and now I need some long Johns on. Thank you brother.
How long to leave unplugged I'm in Cali and I'm baking to death only.blowing hot air it was working fine before
Quick unplug and plug in works good for me with the Power on
I've had to use this fix 2 times now in the bunk. Thank you for your comment!
I’m glad my comment under this CZcams post was helpful I know how it is out here.
Love it! My bunk was blowing cold, but the cab was red hot in 90% humidity here in Kentucky.. I was cool laying down, the moment I sat up I was melting..
Followed this trick and now I’m getting to sub-zero temps up in here, which I prefer.. easier to remove a blanket/sheet than it is to try to maintain a comfy temperature without them.
It worked for me! 2020 freightliner cascadia. Turn the truck off, turn the key to the left. Hold the buttons until it flashing. Start the truck up. Cold air. Amazing 👏
Hold what buttons?
@@tonyb1315 the ones in the video 🤣
Thanks, he forgot to say that part
Once I saw it was engine off in accessory, I did this and got me the cooler air I needed. My system was trying to roast me outta this truck
Much appreciated
The truck needs to be off and I had to have the truck key turned to the left while having those buttons pressed. Now freezing air finally blowing in sleeper too not just upfront. 👏👏👏
Wow
Thank you bro, you make work for me
2020 cascadia here, we had to turn our truck off to get this work but it made the world's difference! Hot air in the bunk, cold up front, that kept shutting down our smart idle randomly at night. I was all but ready to rip the controls off the wall lol so glad I found this video!
Awesome, stay cool!
And Subscribe to help us out. Thanks
I'm having similar problems I think is you had. I reset the front part of the truck and it's blowing cold air. But my 2021 cascadia the sleeper control will not blow cold air and it keeps on blowing hot air no matter if you turn it off. And I can't idle the truck because it shuts off and you wake up 150° any suggestions
@@dannyflemings864 using this trick worked for ours to fix the bunk blowing hot but the truck had to be off. When we set the opti idle to interior comfort it would cycle through a few times then never crank the truck again so we'd wake up just baking in there. I never figured out how to fix that, I'm sorry.
Idk wtf I’d do without CZcams… thank you sooo much
I know right ,I have been taken by so many people until I started youtubing
i said the same thing this just helped
Thank God for your video I used my defroster and wouldn't stop blowing hot air this fixed it for free you're awesome man God bless you
Glad you are back to normal AC operation
Thank you so much for making this, my ac stopped working today and was blowing heat. I tried this and now it blows cold again! 🎉
Your a hero dude. I’m in El Paso for a 34 hour break and my sleeper controls would only control the front ac but nothing would change in the sleeper. I tried this and now it works fine.
I'm surprised. It actually worked. My problem was that the sleeper was stuck on heat. Thanks!
This just happened to me first thing morning in a 2020 Cascadia. It worked. Thank you, you're a life saver in this Florida heat! 😎
You are not the only one, that is why we made this video!
Good stuff. Fixed the problem. I thought it was going to be something big $$$ to fix. Now it’s working like a champ. Kudos bruth
Kudos are what you find in our videos, subscribe for more!
Still valid on '23 model! Much appreciated! I'm rolling along it's 100F in this B... bout to pass out , looked it up. Worked perfectly! ✌🏼🥶
Mine isn't working, does key need to be off or on or running
Thanks it worked on 22 freightliner was up in here sweatin bricks looking for a vid to solve this issue. I appreciate it G 👍🏿
THANK U THANK U THANK U !! it works and now can comfortably take nap w/o doing Fast&Furious stunts w the truck!!
Worked for me in 2023. It's 11f outside and my truck was blowing ac out the front. Thanks!
Worked! Had cold cold ac up front but only hot air in the bunk. Now I can go back to sleep in a cold bunk! Thank you!
that is what we like to hear!
@@DDTruckDriver mine too thank you sir
I had nothing but full heat up front. I was about on fire. I tried to do it with the truck running and it did not work. I turned the truck on and just turn the key onto accessory. Then did the steps you showed and it fixed it. Thank you
Thank you sir u saved my life out here in cali with this heat
It works even though I did it while driving.Thank You 🙏
Subbed, this totally worked and I wish I would have found it last night instead of this morning lol. Thanks man, life hack for the day!
Glad it worked, subscribe for more life saving life hacks!
Find the fuse and pull it and put it back in. Quicker and easier and works every time.
Thank you brother took a couple tries now I have bunk ac
The issue im having is AC wont consistently run to keep sleeper AND cab cold (team truck, so both need to be working simultaneously) When it does work, its FREEZING us to death, but then after a day or two into our work week, it will quit working, either in sleeper or in cab. Sometimes both. Resetting the truck (turning off, waiting 20-30 mins) SOMETIMES works. Filters are clean. Gonna try this next.
This video should had a million thumbs up 👍
Wow amazing ty so muxh us 10 22pm my freightliner been acting hot since 2 days ago i am litterly sweating so bad parked in alabama is 103 degrees and i coulnt take any more ty so much
Hit a big crater hole on the highway and my heat stop working. Pull over watch this video and worked like a charm....Thanks man
IT WORKS THANK YOU
YOU SAVED ME FROM THE HEAT ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Was worth a shot. Those steps worked on 2023 but still poor cooling. Can pressure is good among. Just don’t get it. Blend door could be broken most likely.
You need to say that we must shut the truck off, turn the key in ON position and then do those steps
Bro potentially just saved my life🙌🏾🙌🏾
Saved my 🥓 . I had to make sure my engine was off and key in accessory. Thanks!!
It is funny how some of these trucks act differently. Glad your bacon is saved. Consider subscribing if you would and the next bacon saver will be sent to you when we post it!

Holy Jesus! thanks great tip
Thanks man!!worked
Very helpful. Thankyou!
Woohoo. Thank you. Be blessed.
This worked for me thanks.
I found the blend air actuator had popped off of the housing allowing the blend air door to not function properly. I got the actuator put back in correctly and all is functioning properly now.
Worked, thanks!

Your video helped
Magically sir thanks 🙏
Worked perfect thanks!
Awesome, go ahead and give us a subscribe for more perfect videos.
Holy hell thank you....that does more than just reset that door.....my truck randomly has issues where it'll just stop blowing cold as if you just turned the blower on and it unfucked my a/c
Glad it helped!
Mine just randomly started this same issue tonight. It's on and working, then the lights go out and the cold air turns to ambient temp air, which is hot lol. This reset is working so far, hope it stays
Yo this actually worked for my 2020
That is great! Like the video and subscribe!
Worked great thanks
Fantastic, give us a subscribe if you would please???
Thank you!!!!
Doesn't work
Hello. My buddy has a 21 freightliner. His cab ac works good but his apu powered bunk ac blows warm. Any idea how to reset that?
Make sure ya'll trucks are not running...turn the ignition to the on position
You know I have actually done this while driving down the road before. But I have found that some people say key on engine off, key on engine on, key on engine on while driving. So maybe some of the trucks just respond differently.
Dude you are F awesome.
Key needs to be on accessory. Then start it after blink blink.
Did t work on my 2020 freight liner cascadia
Can’t tell, even when reading some comments. You didn’t say as part of your instruction. Key turned to right or left? Engine on or not? Details matter. Guess I’ll have to experiment.😕
I have 2021 Freightliner, I had to turn engine off with key on on position then reset.
Some trucks are that way, funny how it goes. Thanks for the input. Try both, key on engine off and key on engine on.
The truck has to be in park? I was trying to do it while running but didn't work. Thanks for your videos
For some reason my air smelled Luke barbeque right after doing this. Not sure if it really helped much in optimized idle comfort mode on the bunk will blow some heat in the bunk when set to do so by when you turn it to ac it continues to cook me until you turn it off and start again max cold. Then it blows semi air more like a fan
If your air smells like barbeque then you should be teaching us how to do it. I would love it if my HVAC smelled like bbq #smokedmeatsforlife!
What if I’m having issues with the sleeper berth ac controlling my ac on the in cab? How can I reset so that the knobs in the sleeper berth only control the back and the front (In cab) only controls the front temperature?
What position do engine off or start
my bunk blower always going full speec automatically while i am driving. can somebody please help
Thannnnnnk you!!!!!!
My ac works fine but in the sleeper when I turned off the engine the park smart doesn’t blow cold air. I have to keep the engine running if I want the bunker to get cool while sleeping. Any idea on how to fix that??
Are you using optimized idle?
Is there a way to reset the HVAC for a 2015 Peterbilt 579 is it the same process? thanks
FYI truck can't be running. Turn key to on only press the buttons it'll reset.
This worked for my 2015 Cascadia. But I'm totally confused. My AC worked for over a year without any issues. Now I'm resetting it every time I turn the truck off. Any idea why it might be getting stuck all of a sudden? Thank you.
Fixed the problem. Thanks
Fantastic, subscribe to help us out if you would. Thanks!
Mine does nothing when i press buttons
Turn engine off and leave key on the on position then do the steps he said. This worked for me
Super
Hope it helped, thanks for the subscribe and like?
Should yellow light be on or off while running ac
My a/C doesn't turn off!! When my truck is onn the a/C is onn
This didn't work for me. The front buttons don't light up at all, no air comes out at all no matter what setting. The rear controls work and blow air, the front is just completely dead
Well you might try it a few different ways such as truck running vs truck off but key on. It is also possible you have a bigger problem than your blend door. Usually this issue is just when you have air blowing but it is the wrong temperature.
It just worked but nothing blinked
Hola que tal una pregunta cuál es la función de el color azul y verde en el botón
Verde es normal, azul es económico. En otras palabras no hay diferencia.
el verde es el modo económico, lo que significa que a veces hará más calor. El azul hará que se mantenga frío.
Truck has to be off ? Stopped ?? Doesn’t really help for team on the fly, that door gets stuck on hot and start dying while sleeping
In my experience, you can be driving down the road or sitting parked. Key definitely has to be on though.
Currently me dying rn lol
Can't be driving engine off key turned on.. previous generation you could have done rolling reset
My 2023 is blowing alot out fumes into the cab when i turn it on to heat the truck at night
Well that isn't good, sounds like you have an exhaust leak somewhere
What do I do if my dial lights aren't working.?
Shoot different issue there I assume. My first guess would have been to try this.
It wasn't connected properly so it was a shop issue.. So nothing was working 😅 I got her running cold now.! Thank you for the video, I know for next time.! 😁
Rear controls need to be off and seat too
Not working on mine.
Freightliners have just too much window space, a terrible angle on the windshield that lets in too much sunlight / jump into a Peterbilt, and you'll know what I mean. You can can make ice cubes on the dash of those
It does not work on my 2023
I tried this the lights were flashing as described abs my problem still exists. I have cold AC in the front and the air coming from the Bunk is hot air.
They are stuck on cold in the front and hot in the back? Or can one of them change?
